This is group 2 with Victoria, Kiara and Dimi's wiki page Week 3 9/5/12 The things we figured out: * The loop was way to slow * Moto A goes forward on it's own. * Motos ABC moves nowhere * Moto B moves nowhere on it own * Moto C moves nowhere on it's own * Motos BC moves backwards really fast * Motos AB moves in a long slow curve. * At one stage our tyers were going in the oppisite diretions to eachother * We tryed accelerate on COMMON PALETTE 1 to see what would happen. * Motos BC work together * A works separtely. * BC + LOOP = the robot going backwards
The things we organised was: * We found our song *We desiged the costumes What we want to do: BUILD OUR DANCE!!!
Week 5 23/5/12 The things we did: *We started our DANCE *We did our costume
Our Dance * We start with a shimmy * We then have a snake that is either going to be slow or fast * We make our robot start to dance 8secs into the song. * The snake was before the shimmy but we wanted it after so we fixed it by changing the motos
Our Costume * Hula shirt ( made out of gold paper) * A Flower on the robots head ( made out of gold, green and a purple coloured sheets of paper ) * A cocnut bikini ( made out of a brown and gold paper )
Kiara 's Part For the Robotics Assignment
Term 1 Paragraph Kiara
In term 1 Dimi, Kiara and Tori did robotics. In term one we had a lot of building to do in such little time. We were very far behind in buliding. We never disagreed even in frustrating times. Robotics is fun and I like the building part of it. We struggled and things fell off. Soon enough we were way behind and term 2 was approching. We decided to come in a couple of lunches to get it done. Term 1 we figured all the problems with all the wheels and motos. Our song choice is Hot Hot Hot. We decided to do this song because of the sharp breaks in the song. One of our wheels was not working and therefore brought us behind even more. This was very hard to figure out how to prgam the motos so that they would not go against each other.
Term 2 Paragraph Kiara
Term 2 approched and Dimi, Kiara and Tori were so scared that we were not going to finish. We started our Robotics lessons for another 10 Weeks. By this stage robotics had began to be funner than I expected. We read through all the instrutions that we had done in Term 1 and started to program. Program looks easy but it is not. Half way through term 2 I thought I was going to die. The back of our robot fell OFF. Thanks to the great builder Victoria and Dimi. These two managed to fix the robot while I was programing the first 12 seconds of the dance. Term 2 has been a lot easier because we all worked together.
Tori
Term 1
Term 1 was great. We all had great ideas. I was so happy that Dimi and Kiara were in my group. it toke us a while to build our robot but it all worked out. when we started we all known what we were going to do we thorwt of a crab but than went with a Hiwii gril.
Term 2
Term 2 was also great. We had trouble with our robot but it all worked out. All of the lessons were very fun I hope we can do it agen but with the book.
